Ken Dryden Posted September 18 Report Share Posted September 18 20 hours ago, GA Russell said: I suspect that old George figured he got the last laugh on Professor Wall! I don't think Dr. Wall was implying he was trying to keep George from graduating, he evidently just didn't do the work and Dr. Wall was not one to coddle jocks. I had him for two graduate level courses as a Tulane undergrad, then he finished his career at the University of Georgia. He was easily one of the most colorful characters I had as a professor, he looked and sounded like he might have been a character from a comic novel set in the south.
